Default Redline...

Is it bad if I accidentally hit the cut-off point twice after 8000RPM...on first gear....?

just because you pull the exhaust doesnt mean the rev limiter would change...

LOL It's not gonna raise your rev limiter!! The tach is most likely out at that high anyway. I know ITR's tachs aren't exact.

I put my aussie type r over the dyno and it was pulling power till 8100rpm in 4th. A manufacturer will never promote going into the redzone, therefore they will only ever say max power is just before the redzone, ie integra max power at 7900rpm.
